Abstract.EMOTIONS EXPERIENCED BY FUTURE SECONDARY TEACHERS IN SCIENCE LEARNINGAlthough Science Teaching studies are increasingly taking emotions into account, few have dealt with prospective teachers. The present work analyses the emotions aroused in the science of 83 prospective secondary teachers enrolled in the Master’s Course in Teacher Education in Secondary Education at the University of Extremadura, in three specialities: Biology/Geology, Mathematics, and Physics/Chemistry. In general, prospective teachers experienced positive emotions in learning Biology, Geology and Chemistry, and mostly negative emotions towards the content of Physics and Mathematics. For this reason, it is necessary for the education of prospective teachers to include getting them to share their own school experiences, their emotions in teaching science, and how those emotions might influence how they teach and learn science.Keywords: emotions, teacher training, science, Secondary.Resumen.El plano afectivo en los estudios de Didáctica de las Ciencias cada vez cobra mayor importancia, sin embargo son pocos los trabajos dirigidos a los profesores en formación. En este estudio se analizaron las emociones despertadas en el aprendizaje de las ciencias de 83 futuros profesores de Secundaria que cursan el Máster Universitario en Formación del Profesorado en Educación Secundaria de la Universidad de Extremadura en tres especialidades: Biología/Geología, Matemáticas, y Física/Química. En general, los futuros docentes experimentaron emociones positivas en el aprendizaje de la Biología, la Geología y la Química, y mayoritariamente emociones negativas hacia los contenidos de la Física y las Matemáticas. Creemos necesario que los futuros docentes deben reflexionar sobre las experiencias educativas que han generado emociones positivas o negativas y de cómo estas emociones pueden influir en la enseñanza y el aprendizaje de las ciencias.Palabras clave: emociones, formación del profesorado, ciencias, Secundaria.

The purpose of this study was to compare the learning achievement using cooperative learning model Student Teams Achievement Divisions with cooperative learning model Student Teams Achievement Divisions modification of guided discovery in terms of verbal abality. Based on the results of the study concluded that (1) based on a model of learning, the mathematics achievement of students who use cooperative learning model Student Teams Achievement Divisions as good with mathematics achievement of students who use cooperative learning model Student Teams Achievement Divisions modifications guided discovery, both onstudents who have the high verbal skills, medium and low, (2) base on terms of verbal skills, mathematics achievement of students who have high verbal ability is better than mathematics achievement of students who have medium and low verbal ability, and mathematics achievement of students have medium verbal skillsbetter than mathematics achievement of students have the ability low verbal skills. Tujuan penelitian ini adalah untuk mengetahui perbandingan prestasi belajar yang menggunakan model pembelajaran kooperatif tipe Student Teams Achievement Divisions dengan model pembelajaran kooperatif tipe Student Teams Achievement Divisions modifikasi penemuan terbimbing ditinjau dari kemamuan verbal. Berdasarkan hasil penelitian disimpulkan bahwa (1) berdasarkan model pembelajaran, prestasi belajar matematika peserta didik yang menggunakan model pembelajaran kooperatif tipe Student Teams Achievement Divisions sama baiknya dengan prestasi belajar matematika peserta didik yang dikenai model pembelajaran kooperatif tipe Student Teams Achievement Divisions modifikasi penemuan terbimbing,baik pada peserta didik yang memiliki kemampuan verbal tinggi, sedang dan rendah, (2) ditinjau dari kemampuan verbal, peserta didik yang memiliki kemampuan verbal tinggi lebih baik daripada peserta didik yang memiliki kemampuan verbal sedang dan rendah, dan peserta didik yang memiliki kemampuan verbal sedang lebih baik daripada peserta didik yang memiliki kemampuan verbal rendah.
